[@dragonchaser583]

This guy hands down has the best build guides. If you could get a chance, do the CH560 digital as well.

[@pangeranrio0112]

Finally a mini-ITX build 😍

[@stuffandnonsense8528]

Did you see his Thermaltake 300 build? Great little case but with lots of room for big components. I copied it almost entirely.

[@ChristopherFlannigan]

They have been few and far between recently

[@mjsolomon5427]

@@ChristopherFlannigan Please do a Corsair 2000d build!

[@yusuflimz]

Im a simple guy. I see a Chris Flannigan build. I hit like.

[@ChristopherFlannigan]

Thanks

[@itxaddict7503]

Yooo! This is the Small Form Factor PC case we have all been waiting for. Finally! Can't wait to get my hands on one of these.

[@ayhanbolat5372]

Super clear and basic explanation, appreciated for your effort.

[@connectcarl]

Shoutouts bro. Helped me out a LOT with this.

[@avtarkalsi2853]

Excellent video. I like how you have made separate videos of this case etc...I think I mighr actually build one for myself.

[@anthonypra8899]

The sound it made when the fan was installed to the cooler for the CPU. Ohh my god.

[@ChristopherFlannigan]

Good to know it's normal

[@CAL1MBO]

Great quality video

[@MrPancasona]

Mr Flanigan simple it's the best. I will trying base on you're advice setup pc mini itx🙏👍

[@waynegill1733]

Nice build you explain everything as you go that's great But why a separate rear fan its not needed the Deepcool cooler already has a rear fan attached did you remove it for some reason.

[@kamertonaudiophileplayer847]

Yes, I prefer to install the motherboard first and the fan on top after. I also do not like the power cable lays naked on the metallic wall. You can also pull it and have a risk to damage.

[@RohanSanjith]

As booting into the bios is also a part of the pc building process that you shall show that too 😊

[@ChristopherFlannigan]

That's where the link to another video that covers all that, can do this with every build

[@Zombie101]

5:55 corsair shift? could work nicely

[@NexusView30]

Hey there, i loved your videos I am planning to build the same PC with same specs but there is a problem should I get deep cool AK 620 digital instead of Assassin 4S please reply

[@hirokjyotiadhikary4533]

Can you make a vedio with some different builds like stock cooler and ATX PSU

[@virtualnk5825]

How much did this build cost? Just a range so I can have an idea. Or well i can find all the parts on my own and calculate it but it would help if you could also include a bit of that in your vids. Anyways amazing video, you are a legend!

[@iv3487]

hey how did u get the case fans? did you purchase them separately? afaik they don't come with the case

[@robertlucke4964]

That gpu and poor ram sticks where screaming please give me room 😂

[@ChristopherFlannigan]

It could be much worse for them

[@nsuinteger-au]

Kudos for using a massive gpu for the review.

[@johnyjoe2k]

Love how all of the KZbinrs who are reviewing this case today, all on the same day, all have the same exact talking points, almost like they were given the talking points.

[@ChristopherFlannigan]

Nobody gives us talking points, but we all get given the same specs.

[@maximus3294]

so people who are reviewing the same product end up talking about the same things. wow. who would've thought.

[@Raikiri9491]

The ram that you used is rated for 7200 MT/s. How is that working the 7800x3d?

[@prayogowicaksono4602]

Can i use matx board (two slots ram) in this case? Like asrock h610m or a520m?

[@bobbyharyanto851]

can we install 120mm front fan if we use sfxl psu?

[@thePersonGuise]

I've always had issues with heavy coolers hanging off the side of a motherboard. Is there a way to support the CPU cooler from the bottom or alternatively, lay the computer on its side so the motherboard is parallel to ground surface?

[@BoiKangkong]

Instead of this go for shinysnake g200 or mechanic master c26 or c28 with matx mobo

[@ChristopherFlannigan]

Haven't used any of these

[@Ex-mn2oq]

Sir I am planning to build this exact PC with the sole intent of playing CS2. What will the CPU temperature be and is there any suggestion you'd like to give? I am from India. Thank you! Edit: I checked your other video and I am assuming the CPU temps wont go over 75°C right? Also, is there anything else you would recommend with this case that could lower the temperature and fans sounds?

[@Killswitch1411]

Good looking case.. The IO placement is just bad. Not feeling how it makes the cable management look

[@toonnut1]

👍

[@ChristopherFlannigan]

Thanks

[@leoneildy2224]

itx is nice but troubleshooting will be hell for sure

[@bunkfacezer]

Can i use asrock phantom gaming b650i instead?

[@connectcarl]

I used the b550 phantom gaming itx so you should be fine. Any itx mobo will work.

[@edwardsusanto1202]

i was considering this.... but it's just a hassle

[@Isaibnmariamillarasul]

I see christopher i click

[@19Ruhm94]

Bench? Temp?

[@CAL1MBO]

I put your mummy on a bench. What a benchmark that was.
